grep: handle deref_tag() returning NULL

deref_tag() can return NULL. Exit gracefully in that case instead of blindly dereferencing the return value. .name shouldn't ever be NULL, but grep_object() handles that case explicitly, so let's be defensive here as well and show the broken object's ID if it happens to lack a name after all.
